  Consult with Procurement Team:
  
  If you are unsure about changing the settings, consult with your procurement or materials management team to ensure that any changes align with company policies.
  
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes:

  Related Information:
  
  Material Master: The material master contains all the information about a material, including purchasing data and overdelivery tolerances.
